Class of 2011

CONGRATULATIONS LOVEY

on Saturday,

 May 21, 2011,

my boyfriend will walk across a stage

and receive his degree from

one of the nation's most prestigious school

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY

located in

WASHINGTON D.C

Being a student athlete isn't easy

in fact, if not double, than triple the work

of what is required from an academic student.

A student athlete at the very least requires:

dedication

discipline

motivation

responsibility

and

determination

And at an over achieving school such as Georgetown

it also required a lot of hours of studying.

 Only a few are chosen to hold the title of a student-athlete

and only a few of those are offered a scholarship from the school.

And when accepted,

these students are not just regular college students

They become students on a mission

A mission to not only be part of a intellectual group of young adults that makes up the student body

but to also earn recognition and success in the sport chosen

They are constantly a figure of

represatation of the University 

 That represantation comes

from winning games

to winning titles

to how you talk to the media and press

and also the way you carry yourself on and off campus.

You are immediately in the spot light

and cristimism, expectulation

and jugdment are what you can

expect on the daily basis from your peers

and random people.

And now-a-days with the internet

you are also subject to

being talked about by whoever wishes

to speak about you

wether it is in a good light or bad.

You turn into a public figure on campus

putting that much pressure in a young one's mind.

Between academic endevours and dedicational affort to a team

during practices and games

We must admit

Nothing comes free, and easy in this life

and

these students EARN the scholarship offered to them

Which brings me to this post

telling everyone know how proud I am of my boyfriend

for not only being the most dedicated basketball player in a tough conference

but still, making every effort possible to

 devote his mind into studying and being a great example of a student-athlete

He has never let a teammate or classmate down

when working on group projects

 he was a leader

expected nothing but an A on his work.

My boyfriends hard work inside and outside the classroom

has came to this VERY special piece of paper

and the title he will carry forever

GEORGETOWN ALUMINI

instead of him representing Gtown now

Gtown will represent him.

Amen!

And when you are a Georgetown grad,

nothing stands in your way.

YOU DID IT MONKEY BOY!

Class of 2011

I love you.

forever.
